They must be on the same mailing list where you receive the right-wing BS talking-points of the day to disseminate on whatever BBSs you participate on.

Why would any news organisation repeat that? I've been vocally against mass illegal immigration in the U.S. and all of its unintended consequences, (I live in SoCal, which is truly the belly of the beast), but what those numbers conveniently omit is the contribution to the U.S. economy of illegals. I'm not saying that they contribute more net than they cost us, but for chrisakes do the math. There is a HUGE ******* missing piece of the puzzle in that BS email. Do you even care about intellectual honesty?

The Iraq war IS the huge drain on the U.S. economy. When you honestly factor-in the interest costs of our debt to the Chinese for the invasion/occupation and the weak dollar caused by the resulting deficit+ the sky-rocketing cost of energy that is a direct result of those two things, it's a trillion-dollar fuch-up for someone's kids. (I don't have any).

So enjoy your little half-assed tax-break from Dumbo, maybe use it to fill-up the Chevy Suburban and buy a loaf of $5.00 bread. No one is so stupid as the voter who still loves old W and DIck as they get drilled in the ass for the oil industry.
